Asterisk - get call duration of B-leg

What is the best way to get the call duration of B-leg in Asterisk?

A num--------(a-leg)------->Asterisk PBX--------(b-leg)-----------> B num

The simple dialplan is:

[bleg_duration]
exten => _X.,1,Answer()
 same => n,Wait(10)
 same => n,Dial(dahdi/G1/${B_NUM},30,gS(60))
 same => n,Noop(${CDR(billsec)})
 same => n,Noop(${DIALEDTIME}) ;Time for the call (seconds)
 same => n,Noop(${ANSWEREDTIME}) ;Time from dial to answer (seconds)
 same => n,Hangup()

so if A number call to that dialplan, it wait for 10 seconds before connect to B number. I would like to get the duration from when the B num is answered to when B num hangup. I think it's common need and but can't find the easy way to get it.

1) You can use forkCDR record.

2) You can dial via Local/ channel, second cdr record will have correct billsec.

3) You can save EPOCH(current time) and user it.

and yes, you still can use 

${ANSWEREDTIME}: This is the amount of time for actual call.
